Slash Partners with Angry Birds for "SlashBird"

Espoo, Finland (March 11, 2013) -- After introducing his first two music apps last year, Grammy-winning, iconic guitarist and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Slash got a call from Rovio, the creator of the popular mobile game Angry Birds. A longtime fan of the game since it debuted, Slash and Angry Birds Space have partnered to create the “SlashBird” character, a theme song performed by SLASH and a ringtone.

“We're huge Slash fans, and Slash is a huge Angry Birds fan, so this was just an ideal match,” explains Philip Hickey Vice President, Marketing at Rovio. “It all happened very organically and was just a lot of fun on both sides. Our fans will love the track! Slash rocked the Angry Birds Space theme like only he could!"
